Floats and Fun!

    We had some fun this week.  First we went to the South Town Expo and got to see all the floats for the "Days of 47' Parade".  There were some really cool ones and we all got to vote on our favorite.  I voted for the one that looked like a banana split, yum!
This train had two faces and went back and forth on tracks, it was pretty fancy.


Real sheep for the kids to see and pet.


There were hidden pictures in these clouds and we got pixie dust if we could find all 6.

Mark the engineer.

Isaac the engineer.

Carter the Engineer.

Brock the engineer.

Kayli the engineer.

And the cutest engineer of all, McClane.

Anyone for a "Brown Eyed" banana split!?

Or maybe you'd prefer a "Blue Eyed" banana split!?
   So then it was "Picnic in the Park" just last night and aside from all adults being rejected for face painting it was a fun night.  (I'm only a little bitter.)
Kayli and Kelzie Devitt helping at one of the games.

Allison Smith and Toni Hoover also volunteering.

Trying to paint a spider on McClane's face, he wasn't having it.

Brock getting a spiderman look.

Isaac, Brock, Jacob Nuffer (Our neighbor) and Carter as evil and good spidermen.

Anyone for a ride on the "cow train"?

Brock loved all the inflatable slides.

Mark volunteering.

And Mark's best buddy, Marcus Smith volunteering.  I wondered if the people from American Fork would have been upset to know that some of these volunteers were actually from Alpine.

    So that's the extent of our week.  This morning we're headed to the American Fork parade and then tonight we'll go to the concert at the high school where "She Daisy" will perform and then we'll get to see some fireworks.  And hopefully we won't lose any children this year.

Our stake float was the one with the live sheep! I am glad you got to pet them. I was there Tues morning directing traffic to our the sheep. Fun times!
